Papyrus Manufacturing Tour and Papyrus Making Demonstration

Описание

Papyrus has been an important part of Egypt’s history. The raw material comes from the stalk of the Cyperus papyrus plant, which has a brittle interior and a tough exterior and grows in the damp regions of the Nile Delta. Its method of production was once a well‑kept secret, allowing the ancient Egyptians to hold a monopoly over its manufacture and distribution. At the government‑approved Papyrus Institute, located not far from the Pyramids in Giza, you will find a museum and a shop where you can browse a wide selection of hand‑painted papyrus prints. Along the way, staff will talk you through the entire manufacturing process and give a demonstration of exactly how papyrus is made. Prints range from inexpensive pieces to very costly originals, and the items on sale are authentic papyrus — suitable as keepsakes or gifts.
